PH 0412 196 three three five. Justin

He's done 2 sets for me now, both came up awesome.

Did these volks:

(I asked him to paint them whatever dark colour cause they were gold previously.. awful. I picked them up and he told me he used leftover paint he had from doing some lambo wheels haha)

M5 wheels:

Great pricing too. Will be using him again whenever I need wheels painting for sure.

edit: Pics really don't do his work justice.

Thanks for that, ill give him a call. Does he powder coat or paint? (or either)

sounds like powder coating is the way to go.

I'm selling my wheels, check out my post.

dont laugh.... mine were painted with cans! lots of prep work and elbow grease, many coats including clear, looked brand new. then i ended up selling them for $300 (idiot)

new owner had them powder coated in a deep grey, apart from the colour change i couldnt pick a visual difference in finish... but i know the coating is now stronger

Cans i think would be ok for a short term solution. Finish wise it could be good. The problem will come when you go to get new tyres. When they stretch the tyre around the wheel it will most likely strip the paint of the edge. 2 pak is baked on so its much harder then acrylic (spray can).

Will definately be going with either 2 pak or powder coating.. Although i know nothing about powder coating.. Are stock wheels powder coated or painted??

yeah thats why i did it right after getting new tyres fitted, just prepped and painted before inflating. a set of tyres last me 5 years so i wasnt concerned

Tyres last 5 years?!

You would think that the compound would start to deteriorate in that time after exposure to the weather and what not... but ok... Did you receive my PM?
